Summer months are low for networking as Laurel and I have always noticed lower attendance on beautiful sunny days. This is not a bad sign as summer months are lower for other networking groups as well since many people go on getaways with their families (camping, etc.)

Daryl (the security guy at the front desk of the News Tribune) has also been notified in case you do not get the message. Please mark the above dates on your calendar and see you and your guests who are career seekers/changers and/or business owners on those dates.

We meet every Wednesday at 10 am in the main lobby of the News Tribune in Tacoma where the couches are and at 10 am someone will come out and escort you into the room. Everyone who attends receives a one minute commercial on who they are and what jobs or business they are looking for (depending on if they are a job seeker or a business owner), Laurel and Carly (both leaders of the Job Club) will then share open job positions, job seeker advice, networking and volunteer opportunities, motivational support, and free/low cost community events/activities. At the end of the meeting (it varies some days can be 11:30 am but mostly we end at noon) we will have the attendees have an opportunity to share upcoming events/sales in their business or share anything they feel that could benefit the group career or business wise or maybe even a free/low cost community event or activity they know of (we like to promote work/life balance). :) Yes, we know when you're out of a job, you're supposed to spend 40 hours a week looking for one, but sometimes you need to have a break and some fun so that you can be more productive when you are going at it again with the job search process.

We also have monthly guest speakers I am one of them that speaks on a career related topic each month. All guest speakers speak for a half hour maximum and would have to be willing to speak for free (no paid positions). Laurel and Carly both volunteer as leaders of the Job Club they do NOT get paid. It is also FREE for the public to attend always. If you are interested in being a guest speaker or know of one, we welcome your ideas just contact Carly.
